Guys
Is there any way to delete all the queues at the same time? The queues to be deleted include local Q's,XMIT Q's and remote Q's
TIA

Delete the queues folder under the QMGR. |

NO.
That is entirely unsafe.
If you wish to restore a queue manager to a "pristine" state, then delete it and then recreate it.
If you wish to remove a large number of queues, then consider writing an MQSC script file to delete each individual queue.
If you wish to delete all queues other than SYSTEM queues, then ... well, that's a "pristine state" - but you can also write a program that uses PCF messages to get a list of queues and then creates a PCF message to delete each queue from that list that you don't want.

From the MS03 readme:

Here's a little script to delete all the queues that begin with AMQ (even the PERMDYN ones):
export QM=WBRK_QM
./saveqmgr.linux -m$QM -s -1 -p -c | grep \(\'AMQ | gawk '{print "delete ql",$3}' | runmqsc $QM

Thanks Jeff. so its always safe to delete individual queue at a time rather than all at once. |

It is never safe to delete a queue using anything other than MQSC or PCF (or the MQExplorer).
It is never possible to delete MORE THAN ONE queue at a time using MQSC or PCF or MQExplorer.

I tried that on Windows and it didn't work...

on windows, it's just "saveqmgr", not 'saveqmgr.linux'.

Also, Windows doesn't have grep or gawk but you can get all the Unix tools / Utilities build natively for Windows called GNU utilities for Win32 from:
http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/
I use them all the time and they work great (and no stupid Cygwin dll or anything else).
